PITTSFIELD, Mass. – Mason Blackwell Wednesday singled to the right side with two out in the bottom of the sixth inning to drive in a pair of runs and give the Great Barrington Little League 10-year-old All-Stars a 14-13, walkoff win over Adams-Cheshire in the Don Gleason District 1 Tournament on Myron Gray Field.

 

The victory clinched a spot for Great Barrington (2-1) in the championship round of the tournament.

 

With a record of 2-1, GB will be the second seed in the best-of-three district final that gets under way on Saturday at Deming Park against top-seeded Pittsfield (3-0), a 15-0 winner over Dalton-Hinsdale (1-2) on Wednesday night.

 

Blackwell’s third hit of the night for Great Barrington capped a two-out rally to overcome a 13-12 deficit after Adams-Cheshire (0-3) took the lead in a back-and-forth game with a run in the top of the sixth.

 

“We were able to all that with two outs in the sixth inning,” Great Barrington coach Chip Paul said. “There’s absolute heart to these kids.

 

“Tonight, Mason hit the ball so hard all over the place.”

 

Both teams hit the ball well at Clapp Park on the final night of pool play in the four-team county tournament.
